what i mean was, both should've been completed by the time of the first movie's release, outside of the impending strikes

but i might also not have the timelines aligned
Quality animation takes a long time. Even outside of the writers strike, it was gonna take awhile to complete the second movie. We've seen the reports of unfair working conditions the animators had to endure to just get the first movie done on time

Nope:mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:They didn't start working on the 2nd one until a few months ago then the strike happened
How ia that possible? I thought the plan was originally for part 3 to come out next year and most of it was already done. I’m sure I read that in this thread around the time the movie came out.

-edit- Yeah March 2024 was their original date. They couldn’t have just started working on it with a target date so close.

"One animator says there is no way ‘BEYOND THE SPIDER-VERSE’ releases in March 2024. “The only progress that’s been made on the third one is any exploration or tests that were done before the movie was split into two parts.” (Source: https://bit.ly/3JsuirM)"

"
Have you already started recording for the next movie?

(Steinfeld smiles.) Uh, nope! (Laughs.) As you can imagine, this has been an ongoing thing since the moment the first one came out. There’s been so much focus, and everyone’s blood, sweat, and tears has been put into making this the most incredible and best version of itself that it can be."

Even though 03/2024 was the target release date, they were never going to make that even if the writer's strike didn't happen.

This is what I thought too, thought it was mostly done, and steinfeld was just being coy

Animation takes a lot of hard work. Sony was being ambitious thinking they could release 2 animated movies from the same animation studio less than a year apart.

"They’ve announced that Beyond the Spider-Verse will be released in March of next year. I’ve seen people say, “Oh, they probably worked on it at the same time.” There’s no way that movie’s coming out then. There’s been progress on the pre-production side of things. But as far as the production side goes, the only progress that’s been made on the third one is any exploration or tests that were done before the movie was split into two parts. Everyone’s been fully focused on Across the Spider-Verse and barely crossing the finish line. And now it’s like, Oh, yeah, now we have to do the other one."

If Sony devotes all their resources into getting it done next year, they can rush it to 2025.

However, 2026 is probably more likely if Sony wants to avoid the bad press of over-working the animators like they got for Across the Spider-verse.
Which already happened for this one:francis:
